Oh I forgot, there's an easy way to detect if someone is using a xim.....their breath smells like dick

Easiest way to tell if someone's using a Xim is a bunch of pussies will start complaining about them.

supposedly it's a new map-- Endless Vale. No word on if that's going to be on Mercury (as seen in some ship previews) or Io.

I would appreciate if we get a female Xur.

I don't know what I was expecting, but It was more than this. Hype level: Currently evaluates to "false", that is true.

Gonna be weird with PvP dropped down to 4v4. I wonder if they'll change it to be more like King of the Hill? Seems like a single capture point that moves around the map would be more suited to the lower player count since it will keep the action focused.

Notable changes include the following:

Points no longer capture faster if multiple people are standing on them.
You can activate a power play if you capture all points.
Point A and point C begin as captured.
Capture is no longer a two-step process eliminating neutralization. Now you only have to capture the point.
If you capture all the zones you now enter a “power play,” meaning you’ll get even more points per kill.
Matches are now 8 minutes long.
Mercy rule will be enabled, but is still being developed with the beta.

The capture point flags are transparent if you are close to them, which is a really nice touch

Also blink is back and sentinel looked alot like bladedancer from y1

They also said later in the article that power ammo won't be available straight from the get go like it is in the video, that was a temporary quirk of the build they used.

I think Warlocks/Titans/Hunters will actually have all three subclasses, rather than the two that people theorized, because we've already seen the golden gun and pole dancer Hunters and at the start of this video you can see one use the void shade step ability I think:

Shade step is the class ability for all hunters now.

There is little that makes me happier than taking drugs. Perhaps administering them, designing and carrying out experiments that bend the plane of what we consider reality.

Impression:

- If I ever play this bad, please somebody kill me.
- Chunkle after PR person say "You don't need more people to capture faster". He. what a weasel way to twist it.
- I am probably worse than this guys.
- Wait a second, the titan wall stop his own bullets? how dumb is that?
- I could see me playing this, it could be enteirtaining.
- With maps this size, I forese 4 people ragequitting. Is possible for a good player to completely dominate in a way where it would be pointless to respawn.

Hype = Hype * 0.98 + 2.

This PvP is dumb, but could be dumb entertaining. .

I'm not going to go searching for the interview, but there was an IGN thing with Luke Smith where he talked about how cool it was that bubbles essentially changed the geometry of maps, and the hilarity of wrongly placed bubbles and that they didn't want to take that away. And there was also a quote floating around that implied that you could respec your Sentinel to drop a traditional Ward.

e Not to mention you straight up see Zavala do it in the opening mission. I'm pretty sure bubbles are in.

You can't shoot through Ward of Dawn, I don't see why this would be any different. It's a physical barrier, not a one way mirror.

Color me surprised. I honestly didn't think they'd bring blink back to the game.

Titan walls are going to be annoying as poo poo. Hunter evade rolls seem pretty underwhelming compared to the other class' abilities, but on the other hand I'll finally (sort of) get my wish of having blink and shadestep on the same class.

I don't think about my hands too much. Just trying to hit the ball in the air. Hit the ball in the air!
They got rid of skating but it looks like the titan jump will still be good for moving short distances quickly. Also, am I wrong or did they trim that titan footage so we never got to see grenades or melee abilities?
